A new floating drydock constructed at the Feeney Shipyard in Kingston NY was brought down the North River Saturday evening by Stasinos Marine and delivered to its owners, Hughes Marine, at their base in Erie Basin. According to Hughes, this is possibly the first new drydock installed in Brooklyn in over 100 years. My nighttime photo is not great, but daytime shots can be seen on the Facebook feeds of Kevin Oldenburg, Glenn Raymo, and Hughes Marine.

Stasinos tug Charles James, one of two tugs bringing the dock south, had a busy weekend. Shortly after arriving in Brooklyn from Kingston, Charles headed back north to Tarrytown where they collected a crane barge and brought it back through New York Harbor Sunday morning. They continued up through Hell Gate and stopped in at Bridgeport before continuing on to Fall River, arriving there early Monday.
